#but I felt bad deleting it

[undertale-writing-times]

You know those situations where the parents have to choose between saving the baby or the one carrying the baby? What if S/O chooses their own life over the baby's? 💀

Normally I wouldn't write something like this, since it's a bit too dark, but I figured hey, why not? I didn't go through too much detail or anything.

Error: Good. Error hates that this had to happen, of course, but they never really like the idea of having children, and they would rather have you rather than have the baby. They'll comfort you during the whole thing,and try to make you feel better, but they're not really heartbroken about this…

Ink: It does suck, he did want children, but hey! They could try again later. No use in being sad about something that they could try again on. Yeah, it won't be the same but it is a new version, right?(he's not that good at this sorta thing ^^')

Yanberry: Berry thinks that you made the right choice. It is very sad that the baby couldn't be saved, but honestly, he would have rather had you anyway. It would have been dangerous for the baby if you died and the baby didn't… so! He'll tell you that he still loves you, and if you want a baby, they could always just adopt! Or try again later.

Hound: Their soul has a ping of pain shooting through it when they heard that the baby passed, then they heard that you were still alive. Their soul still hurt, but they were… pleased to hear that you were still alive. They helped you feel better, talking to you and listening to you talk about your feelings. They aren't sure that they would want to try again.

Axe: When he hears that the baby died, his mind rushes to the worst ending but then he hears that you lived. He's really happy that you lived, but he can't help but feel kinda… sad that the baby didn't. He feels a little guilty thinking that. Did he not deserve to have a big happy family? Did he not deserve babybones?

Lover: It hurts. It hurts a lot. He knew that this was going to happen but he allowed himself to hope. He let himself dream of a family… he'll come in, and hold your hand, and you two can cry together. You two knew that this was a chance… the baby just didn't have enough magic to form fully.

Thinking about the Don Suave scene and what it means in terms of LGBTQ+ representation because my brain does nothing if not torment me with random topics to ramble about on the regular.

Anyway, I just wanted to ramble about why I like the scene but to get it out of the way - the scene can very easily be interpreted in so many different ways, and all of them are valid. I personally see it as Leo having at least some attraction to a man. And the following is an explanation of my own interpretation and thoughts on it and what it means especially for Leo’s portrayal in the grand scheme of things.

Long-winded interpretation under the cut!

Now, to start with, it’s important to me that in the scene Leo looks at Don Suave in the very beginning and then for the entirety of the rest of the time the man is on screen, Leo’s eyes are closed. Yet, in the end, he is still visibly enamored with Don Suave, happily cuddling up to him as he’s being carried away.

You can very easily interpret this as Leo being spellbound and that’s honestly super valid and I believe he likely was at least somewhat in the beginning, but considering how fast he looked away and how he never looked again, I personally think it makes more sense to read it as Leo just finding the man attractive, at least somewhat. (For the record, I personally headcanon Rise Leo as bisexual with a heavy preference for men, but I want to be blunt when I say that any interpretation is valid. Literally any. Ace, pan, gay, bi, none of the above or a mixture of something new literally all of it is more than okay and fair. Hell you could even interpret this entire scene as more romantic attraction than physical and it would still work. Anything goes!! Don’t bother people, guys, really.)

The main reason I take this scene to be at the very least LGBTQ+ adjacent isn’t just because of how it’s portrayed, but because of who Leonardo is. Not in terms of Rise of the TMNT, but in terms of the entire Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles™️ franchise.

Leo’s a character who, while changing with each iteration, has still at his core been around for decades upon decades as “the blue one”. One fourth of the team. He’s the one most are going to look at as the Leader, and oftentimes he is the one closest to having the title of Main Character. Not to say the others aren’t just as important, but Leo’s presence in the A plots of basically all TMNT media is often something very main character-esque.

And that’s very, very important to note. Here we have a Main Character of a prolific and decades long-running franchise distributed by a children’s television network. You can play around with his and his brothers’ characters all you like, but there is always going to be challenges to dodge around, especially since this was still in 2018-2019.

For example, you can play around with their designs so long as they’re color coded turtles, but their sexualities? Now that’s tricky.

“But what about Hypno and Warren?” Not main characters and also they’re Rise originals. They have a lot more room to play around with than a character like Leo does. But even talking about main characters in the franchise, you could arguably have an easier time playing around with Donnie or Mikey’s sexualities than Leo or even Raph, as (unfortunately) the former two tend to get more B plots, so they’d likely have had a little more leeway (still not a lot though.)

So, where does this leave us?

It leaves us in a place where outright stating and/or showing undeniable proof of Leo’s attraction to men is very, very difficult. So, workarounds!

Workarounds like the entire Don Suave situation.

To be honest, as left up to interpretation and lowkey and deniable as it is, this whole scene means a lot to me because of who Leo is as a character. It’s just nice when we get so see even the bare bones of representation with characters that have been such a large part of pop culture for decades, y’know? Even if more would be so much nicer, this is better than I thought we’d ever get for these boys.

And, again, literally nothing I’ve said is the only way to interpret it, I’m more than happy when people interpret media on their own honestly, it’s just something I’ve been thinking of lately and I was wondering if others felt the same way.

Whatever you think when you interpret this scene or Rise Leo as a whole, I just thought this would be interesting to think about, even if it was ramble-y, haha.

when someone else suggests My Love Mine All Mine fitting them you agree but when i suggest it i get angsty sad dogs dump about how theyll never be each others'. stomping around like an angry toddler. (/j!!!!)

They're both true! It fits them, but in a desperate, delusionally hopeful way.
